How can I get in contact if I have a concern or question?

There are two ways you can reach us if you have a concern or question. For anything urgent, please use the Resident's Phone Line: 0203 781 0001. This phone line is operational throughout the event, and also the build and break days before and afterwards. If you have a non-urgent query, or would like to add supplementary information to a phone call, please use the events email address at events@visitgunnersbury this email is not checked outside of office hours (9am-5pm) so please do NOT use it for urgent concerns.

What is it? 

Private summer party for Soho House members and their guests.  Afternoon and evening of food, drink and entertainment.  The event is not open for general admission. 

Will the park be open while the event is on? 

Yes, all entrances in to and out of the park will remain open. The event is based in the Old Cricket Pitch and part of Heritage Parkland which is in the Southern area of the park but some other areas of the park will contain infrastructure such as barrier, fencing, lighting and toilets to ensure event related traffic or customers can arrive and depart safely and easily. Approximately 80% of the park will remain open as usual.

Will the park’s other facilities be open while the event is on? 

Yes, the sports centre, museum, and car park will all be open as usual however, on 2nd July there will be two changes: the small car park (next to the Museum) will be closed, and a one-way system will be implemented in the car park for safety reasons. The event organisers will be providing stewards and installing barrier in and near the car park to direct event related traffic and other traffic also using the car park during this time. Your cooperation in following their directions is appreciated.  

Will nearby streets, traffic and parking be affected? 

Event attendees are being encouraged to travel by public transport and the event organisers have publicised that there is no parking available at the event or in the local area. No road closures are planned for this event.  There is a dedicated taxi and pick up and drop off operation within Gunnersbury Park to minimise the impact of vehicular traffic on the main road.  This will be signposted, stewarded and communicated to event attendees in advance. The event organisers are implementing robust crowd management and dispersal plans to help move customers away from the area and to public transport hubs as safely, quickly, and quietly as possible. It is expected that the majority of attendees will arrive and depart by Acton Town Station, the high volume of people crossing the A406 to get to Acton Town station might mean that there are longer waits at these traffic lights. Thank you for your patience. 

What are the event organisers proposing to do about litter? 

The event organisers are implementing a waste management plan which includes regularly collecting and clearing waste from their arena, the other areas in the park being used for the event, and in the surrounding streets being used by their customers who are arriving and departing from nearby transport hubs.  The schedule of collections continues throughout the event, and post event to ensure parks and proximate locations are clear the next day.  Streets covered include Popes Lane from the Sports Centre entrance to A406 crossing (and around this area) and then along Gunnersbury Lane to Acton Town station.  The event organisers are also committed to reducing their impact on the environment. 

Will the event cause noise nuisance? 

A comprehensive Noise Management Plan has been developed by the event organisers in consultation with competent acousticians and the Council’s Noise Pollution Officers. Construction and deconstruction should not be audible beyond the boundary of the park outside of 08:00 to 20:00. The stages have been positioned to minimise the likelihood of performance noise being a nuisance while the concert is live. If you do experience nuisance noise you can contact the event organisers using the contact details which will be circulated prior to the event. Upon receiving a complaint about noise, the event organiser will ask for information so they are able to respond. This response might involve sending a member of the event organiser’s Noise Monitoring Team to your location so they can take readings and make adjustments to the event’s amplified sound if necessary.

For the Local Community

There will be a dedicated phone number for the local community to use to discuss any event or sound-related issues or queries. The number for the Resident Line is 0203 781 0001. This will be operational during construction, deconstruction and live event days for all events listed above

Gunnersbury Park Development Trust's aims are opening up the park and museum for education, leisure and recreation for the widest possible audience. We invest 100% net surplus of the income generated from any events events back into Gunnersbury, to allow us to continue serving our community.

As part of our events programme tens of thousands of people have visited Gunnersbury in recent years: whether bringing the family for a day out with dinosaurs, to listen to award-winning music artists or enjoy immersive cinema, and we’ve loved welcoming new and familiar faces to the park. All profits from these events are invested into the park & museum.

We offer a rich variety of experiences and services to attract the widest possible range of visitors and add value to our communities lives. We welcome thousands of local school students for educational experiences, bring opportunities to local community groups, offer a thriving museum service and continue keeping the park and museum well-maintained and safe. The running cost for the Gunnersbury Estate are on average in excess of £2.3m, and our costs are rising all the time, making event income ever more vital.

We held a resident feedback meeting in January 2025 to review the previous year’s events. The session was constructive, with many residents acknowledging continued improvements in areas such as sound management, signage, and facilities. While the overall response was positive, residents also shared helpful suggestions for further enhancements. We are working closely with all event organisers to address this feedback and will provide further details on planned improvements at upcoming meetings and on our website.
